In other campaign news, Donald Trump has accused Senator Ted Cruz of stealing the Iowa caucus by spreading rumors that Ben Carson had suspended his campaign just prior to the opening of the caucuses. Trump, who ended up placing second behind Cruz, demanded a redo of the vote.

Donald Trump: “Oh, that voter fraud! You know, these politicians are brutal. They’re brutal. They are brutal. They are a bunch of dishonest cookies, I want to tell you. That’s one of the reasons I’m doing this. It’s one of the reasons.”

On Wednesday, Ted Cruz defended the actions of his campaign team.

Sen. Ted Cruz: “Our political team passed on a CNN news story that CNN broke. The news story said that Ben Carson was not continuing from Iowa on to New Hampshire, he was not continuing to South Carolina, instead he was going home to Florida. That was a news story CNN had posted. And our political team passed it on to our supporters. It was breaking news that was relevant.”

CNN responded to Cruz’s comments by saying, “Senator Cruz’s claims about CNN are false. At no point did the network indicate Dr. Carson would suspend his campaign.”
